Welp, that was one winner of a week!  Last week was pretty sweet.  R. was baptized like I said.  Yes, I did give him the last of my coins from Byron.  He loved it, he was sad to see me go but understood that we have pretty much finished our work and it is up to him to start walking on his own.  Tuesday L., the Chinese man that was baptised took us out to lunch at this great Chinese place in my old area.  They had such good sweet and sour chicken.  I'm going to go back sometime.

Wednesday was transfers and we had to take some missionaries to the airport after transfers.  I got to give some surprise instruction to the trainers and new missionaries.  After transfers President took us to a cultural event thing where a bunch of guys were doing a dance.  It was really like a circus and acrobatics.  They were blowing fire and juggling and standing on each others heads.  You can only imagine the things we were trying after that.

Thursday was Thanksgiving and we proselyted all morning until 4 when we went to Presidents house.  They invited the whole area office over. SO GOOD!  I ate way to many pieces of pumpkin pie and I didn't even know I liked Pumpkin pie.  That was a great day.  Friday was office council and out first real chat with president.  We always talk of Fridays after office council about transfers and missionaries.  That was really good.  I really enjoyed the one on one time with President Hill.  That is what I am most excited for.  

One of the best things about the week was at transfers when Elder N. who replaced me back in Kasoa told me that me recent convert D. got the Melchezidek Priesthood last Sunday at Stake Conference!!!  I was so excited.  He is still preparing for to serve a mission.  That kid is solid!  Good good guy.  I love him.  

Dad, we have 3 stakes and 2 districts in my mission.  My mission is tiny!  But was have several Wards and they are really trying to focus on splitting the Wards and making the church more accessible.  Earlier this year the area presidency announced that they want to make it so every member is with in 30 minutes walk of a building where it used to be 45 minutes walk.  There are a lot of new buildings being rented and built now.  

Love you all!

Love,

Elder Clark
